Hi, I'm Mary and I'm a 22 year old single mother of two and an ASPIRing (there is a reason that is typed that way, I will get to that later) entrepreneur. I am from a small town in New York, on Long Island. I come from a large family that is caring, supportive, loving and at times completely crazy! My family has many success stories, and not one of them came easy. Not one of them happened completely overnight. They all involved what we are programmed from a very early age to learn; success comes from a good education and a good job following your degree. While that may hold truth, to some extent, we are quickly progressing into a much more technology based era. I know what you must be thinking; "why is she working online if her family really is that well off?" ... Yes, my family really is that well off, and yes, I do have a very good education behind me. I studied law enforcment, forensics and nursing all throughout school. I currently hold a license as an LPN. I graduated school with a GPA of a 97. So what am I trying to do? I am trying to help others. So many people have it worse off than we tend to think that we do. Coming from someone who battled an addiction with alcohol after losing her virginity to her first boyfriend at 14 due to an unfortunate and traumatic experience. From someone who is a severe epileltic and a breast cancer survivor; people out there have it bad. And i was feeling sorry for myself until one day I was driving past and saw a man holding a sign up asking for food. Let me put that into perspective for you. I was DRIVING MY CAR. He was on the side of the road BEGGING FOR FOOD. That moment broke my heart. It took me all of ten minutes to get a meal from Wendy's, turn around and deliver it to him and give him the last $100 in my wallet. Do you know how long he had been there? Several hours. Do you know how many people stopped? Just me. One person. I truly believe that if you want to make a change, only you can make that change. I am not offering up opportunities to perfectly good strangers to make a heavy profit. I am doing this because I feel that to be successful as an entrepreneur, that you have to have the heart. It's about paying it forward, and spreading the wealth. I believe in the trickle down effect, it shouldn't stop with the rich getting richer and the poor getting even more poor. Pure greed makes me absolutely disgusted and greed is the reason that they refer to money as the root of all evil. If you are ready and willing to make a change in your life, continue reading on and keep an open mind.
